292 Report; Anticipation!
Just as Hu Chuan was worried, muffled footsteps came from outside.
Groups of old professors wearing thick glasses chatted as they moved forward and quickly found their own positions.
Professor Barnington, who was sitting at the front, looked at the crowd in the auditorium and sighed. “There seem to be more people than last time.”
Professor Lancelot said, “After all, there are more people interested in the Hail Conjecture than Zhou’s Conjecture.”
!!
Professor Lancelot paused and said, “Do you think his solution to the conjecture is correct?”
“At least, I didn’t find any obvious problems,” Barnington said. “Of course, we’ll have to see the details of his report. However, I’m full of expectations for him.”
Lancelot nodded in understanding. Then, he looked at the pocket watch hanging around his neck and said, “It’s almost time.”
Barnington’s expression became even more expectant.
…
Compared to Barnington’s anticipation, Hu Chuan’s face was filled with anxiety.
Lin Fan had not come!
He saw that the report was about to start, but Lin Fan had not come. It was just like last time!
What should he do?
Therefore, Hu Chuan had no choice but to let the school leader go on stage first. He tried his best to say some superficial words to stall for time.
Then, he quickly picked up his phone and dialed Lin Fan’s number.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up, just like last time.
Hu Chuan listened to the gradually dissatisfied voices of many mathematics experts in the auditorium and could not help but feel anxious.
Then, Hu Chuan picked up his phone and called Lin Fan’s counselor, Sun Yaodong, and Lin Fan’s roommate, Song Yi.
However, they did not know where Lin Fan was.
Even so, Hu Chuan did not give up. He continued to make calls.
When he called Hu Tian, he finally received good news.
Hu Tian said, “Lin Fan and I stayed up to study Hodge Conjecture yesterday… We woke up a little late, but we’re already on our way over. We’ll arrive in ten minutes.”
After she finished speaking, her pretty face blushed.
After hanging up the phone, Hu Chuan walked quickly to the stage and said in fluent English, “Lin Fan was studying the Hodge Conjecture last night and lost track of time. Please forgive him. He’s on his way.”
Originally, many people were already unhappy because the main speaker, Lin Fan, did not arrive on time.
However, after hearing Hu Chuan’s explanation, everyone’s dissatisfaction instantly disappeared.
Instead, they only had endless expectations.
Many people started discussing in low voices.
“Do you think he wants to solve a math problem during the report?”
“How is that possible? That’s the Hodge Conjecture we’re talking about! It’s one of the most difficult problems of the millennium!”
“However, his spirit is indeed commendable. He’s just solved the Hail Conjecture and immediately threw himself into a new difficult problem.”
“If I remember correctly, he has already solved Zhou’s Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture, right? Including Hail Conjecture, he’s already solved three difficult problems… Now, he’s targeting the Hodge Conjecture? Is he still human?”
…
At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside the corridor.
Creak!
The doors of the auditorium were slowly pushed open.
Then, Lin Fan and Hu Tian finally walked in side by side.
Instantly, everyone’s eyes were focused on Lin Fan.
The mathematics experts noticed that Lin Fan was not in a good state of mind. His dark circles were a little heavy.
Everyone could not help but exclaim, “Indeed, there’s a reason why Lin Fan could solve so many math problems at such a young age!”
It was all because of his hard work!
Even though he was going to give a large-scale report in front of more than half of the world’s famous mathematicians today, he still seized every second last night to challenge new problems.
What kind of rare quality was this?!
All the experts silently gave Lin Fan a thumbs-up and clapped.
Lin Fan naturally did not know what the mathematicians were thinking.
He did not care about the applause at all.
He had already had the experience of holding a report, so he was even more relaxed this time.
Lin Fan spoke into the microphone in fluent Hua Nation language, “Hello everyone, I’m Lin Fan.”
Then, he picked up a pen and wrote on the electronic whiteboard… He quickly wrote down the clearest and most understandable solution to Hail Conjecture.
X1=1,X2=?3X1+3?/2^1=3
X1=3,X2=?3X3+3?/2^2=3
…
Everyone present was a mathematics expert. Many of them had studied the Hail Conjecture for many years, and Lin Fan’s calculations were very detailed.
Therefore, many people could understand the steps.
As time passed, Lin Fan’s writing speed became faster and faster. The pen and the electronic writing board kept colliding, making a rapid and violent sound, like a pleasant symphony.
n=2m,fm(n)=1?m”N?
…
Xs+1=(3Xs+1)/2 ^n!
Hail Conjecture was proven to be successful!
It was perfect!
No one had ever seen such a perfect calculation!
There was not a single flaw!
Originally, some people had planned to pick on him during the report.
However, at this moment, they found that they could not find any problem at all.
They even started clapping.
Immediately after, the entire auditorium was filled with thunderous applause!
Normally, at this moment, the main speaker should turn around and thank everyone with a smile.
However, Lin Fan still had his back facing the mathematics experts.
He was still writing rapidly with the pen in his hands.
Soon, the mathematicians noticed this.
Was the Hail Conjecture not proven successful?
Why was Lin Fan still writing the calculations?
?1/2?[A]+12[B]
Hk?X,Q?=0
…
Finally, someone exclaimed, “Hodge Conjecture! He’s solving the Hodge Conjecture!”
His words were like a deep water bomb, causing the entire auditorium to shake violently.
Even though everyone knew that Lin Fan was studying the Hodge Conjecture last night and even praised him for his hard work, there were too many people studying the Hodge Conjecture.
Most people would need a lot of effort to understand the Hodge Conjecture, let alone solve it.
After all, this was a problem of the millennium.
Therefore, no one thought that Lin Fan would have a breakthrough in the Hodge Conjecture in such a short period of time.
What was Lin Fan trying to do now?
He was trying to answer the Hodge Conjecture in public?
How was this possible?
He had just solved the Hail Conjecture!
Professor Barnington, who was sitting in the front seat, watched Lin Fan write quickly. His turbid eyes gradually lit up as his wrinkled face became filled with anticipation.
